I once lived the life of a millionaire
Spending my money i didn’t care
Always taking my friends out for a good time
Buying champagne, gin and wine
But just as soon as my dough got low
I couldn’t find a friend, no place i go
If i ever get my hands on a dollar again
I’m gonna squeeze it, and squeeze it
Till the eagle grins

Nobody knows you when you’re down and out
In your pocket, not one penny
And your friends, you haven’t any
And as soon as you get on your feet again
Everybody is your long lost friend
It’s mighty strange, without a doubt, but
Nobody wants you when you’re down and out

You know folks, i once had a mansion
Way up on the side of a hill
I’d give champagne and caviar parties
Just for fun and get a thrill
But you know things they just can’t stay like that forever
And now i can’t muscle up enough money
To buy a shot of gin

But you know, if i ever get my hands on a dollar again
I’m gonna squeeze it, and squeeze it till the eagle grins
It’s mighty strange, without a doubt
Nobody wants you
Nobody needs you
Nobody wants you when you’re down and out

Once i lived the life of a millionaire,
Spent all my money, i just did not care.
Took all my friends out for a good time,
Bought bootleg whisky, champagne and wine.

Then i began to fall so low,
Lost all my good friends, i did not have nowhere to go.
I get my hands on a dollar again,
I’m gonna hang on to it till that eagle grins.

‘cause no, no, nobody knows you
When you’re down and out.
In your pocket, not one penny,
And as for friends, you don’t have any.

When you finally get back up on your feet again,
Everybody wants to be your old long-lost friend.
Said it’s mighty strange, without a doubt,
Nobody knows you when you’re down and out.

When you finally get back upon your feet again,
Everybody wants to be your good old long-lost friend.
Said it’s mighty strange,
Nobody knows you,
Nobody knows you,
Nobody knows you when you’re down and out.

Well, once I lived the life of a millionaire, spending my money, no, I didn’t care
Takin’ my friend John out for a mighty good time
Buyin’ high-priced liquor, champagne and wine

Then I began to fall so low, didn’t have a friend, nor no place to go
If I get my hands on a dollar again
I’m goin’ to hold on to it until the eagle grins

Soon as I get back up on my feet again, everybody wants to be my long-lost friend
It’s might strange, without a doubt
Nobody wants you when you’re down and out

Lord, soon as I get up on my feet again, everybody wants to be my long-lost friend
It’s mighty strange, without a doubt
Nobody wants you when you’re down and out
That’s what I mean, when you’re down and out

once i lived the life of a millionaire
Spending my money, i didn’t care
Takin’ my friends out for a mighty good time
Drinkin’ high priced liquor, champagne and wine
Then i began to fall so low
Couldn’t buy me no friends, have no place to go
If i ever get my hands on a dollar again
I’m gonna hold on to it, till the eagle grins

I said nobody knows you when you’re down and out
In your pocket, you ain’t got one penny
And your friends, you didn’t have any
Just as soon as you get up on your feet again
Everybody wants to be your long-lost friend
Oh lord without a doubt
Nobody wants you, nobody needs you nobody wants you
When you’re down and out
I say nobody wants you
Nobody needs you
Nobody wants you when you’re down and out

Once I lived the life
of a millionaire
Spending my money
Oh I didn’t care
Taking my friends out
For a mighty good time
Oh we’d drink that good gin
Champagne and wine

But oh just as soon
As my money got low
I couldn’t find nobody
And I had no place to go
And if I ever get my hands
On a dollar again
I’m gonna hold on
Till the eagle wins
Cause I found out

Nobody wants you
When you’re down and out
Nobody wants you
When you’re down and out

Lord have mercy

Yeah, yeah, now listen
Now in your pocket
There’s not one penny
And all of them good friends
You found out you haven’t got any
Nobody come around
But the landlord and the taxman
Your ex-wife who says
She wants more alimony
Then there’s a knock on the door
And it’s a woman you don’t know
Says she’s having your baby
She’ll walk on in

But oh just as soon
as the money roll in
Here they all come sayings
That they’re you’re long lost friends
But if I ever get my hands
On a dollar again
I believe, I believe I’ll hold on
Till the eagle wins
Cause I found out

Nobody wants you
When you’re down and out
Nobody wants you
When you’re down and out

Nobody wants you
When you’re down and out
Nobody wants you
When you’re down and out

Nobody wants you
When you’re down and out
Nobody wants you
When you’re down and out

Nobody wants you
When you’re down and out
Nobody, nobody, nobody

Well, once i lived the life of a millionaire
Spending my money, no, i didn’t care
Takin’ my friend john out for a mighty good time
Buyin’ high-priced liquor, champagne and wine.

Then i began to fall so low,
Didn’t have a friend, nor no place to go.
If i get my hands on a dollar again
I’m goin’ to hold on to it until the eagle grins.

Soon as i get back up on my feet again
Everybody wants to be my long-lost friend.
It’s might strange, without a doubt
Nobody wants you when you’re down and out.

Lord, soon as i get up on my feet again
Everybody wants to be my long-lost friend
It’s mighty strange, without a doubt
Nobody wants you when you’re down and out.
That’s what i mean ¡º when you’re down and out.
